Supporting a Worthy Cause
WEYMOUTH, MASS. — Thousands of specialty T-shirts are being printed at College Hype in Weymouth ahead of Sunday’s big game. This initiative is not just about the shirts; it’s about making a difference. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Matt Brown Foundation, which supports those battling paralysis. Matt Brown suffered a spinal cord injury during a high school hockey game in 2010.
“Matt’s such a great guy, very inspirational,” said College Hype CEO Jack Doherty. “He’s done a lot for the community, and he continues to do so.”
The idea for this collaboration came about during a casual outing. “We were out the other night and thought, ‘Why don’t we do another shirt and donate some of the proceeds to your organization?’ He said, ‘Let’s do it,’” Doherty recounted.
Unique Designs for Fans
There are three different shirts as part of this initiative, each giving a unique nod to Pats Nation. One shirt says, “Vested in Vrabel,” another proclaims, “Six was history, seven is next,” and the third humorously states, “I love Ann Michael Maye’s husband.”
“I think it perks up everybody’s spirits,” Doherty said. “This will add a little oomph to them and help inspire them to win 24-14.”
Where to Get Your T-Shirt
College Hype will be producing the T-shirts until Saturday. Fans can purchase them at their storefront located at 540 Gallivan Blvd in Dorchester or at their facility in Weymouth at 54 Mathewson Drive.
The Impact of Community Support
Community support is vital for initiatives like this. It not only brings people together but also raises awareness for important causes. The collaboration between College Hype and the Matt Brown Foundation exemplifies how businesses can play a role in uplifting their communities.
When we come together for a common goal, we can achieve great things. This initiative is a perfect example of how a simple idea can lead to significant change. By purchasing a T-shirt, fans are not just showing their support for their team; they are also contributing to a cause that helps those in need.
Conclusion: Join the Movement
As we gear up for the big game, let’s remember the importance of community. By supporting local initiatives like this one, we can make a difference. So, let’s rally together, grab our T-shirts, and cheer on our team while supporting a worthy cause. Together, we can create a positive impact that extends far beyond the game.
